Top 10 Reasons to Buy Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1

Last month, Asus launched the all-new Zenfone Max Pro M1 in the India market. While there is already a fierce competition in the budget segment in India, the Zenfone Max Pro outperform many other devices with its best in class specifications and aggressive price tag. Below are the top 10 reasons to buy the Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 over other smartphones in its price range.

1. Dual VoLTE

While the majority of the smartphones these days support VoLTE, their secondary SIM is limited to the 3G network. While there are a couple of high-end smartphones that offer dual VoLTE support, the Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1 is the first budget smartphone to introduce this feature. With the dual VoLTE functionality, the users can simultaneously connect two 4G VoLTE networks, without the need to switch to one particular sim manually.

2. Triple Card Slot

Another interesting feature of the Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1 is the triple card slot. Users can insert two nano SIM cards along with a Micro SD card. On most other smartphones, there will be a hybrid SIM card slot where the user has to choose between the secondary SIM or the MicroSD card. These small features make a big difference in the overall usage of the device. No one wants to limit the storage on their device, at least in 2018.

3. Snapdragon 636

The Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1 comes with powerful 14nm Qualcomm Snapdragon 636 Mobile Platform. It packs the custom Kryo 260 CPU that offers up to 40% higher performance than its predecessor.

4. Dual Rear Cameras

Talking about the camera, there are dual rear cameras on the ZenFone Max Pro M1. While the primary 13MP sensor comes with 1.12μm pixel size and f/2.2 aperture, the secondary 5MP sensor offers 1.12μm pixel size and f/2.4 aperture. The device supports portrait mode which uses the secondary sensor to measure the depth in the image for perfect blur effect.

5. Stock Android

We have seen many manufacturers opting for stock Android in 2018. Asus also joins the list with the new ZenFone Max Pro M1. It is the company’s first ever smartphone to come with the stock Android instead of the in-house Zen UI. It runs on the latest Android 8.1 Oreo out of the box and there isn’t much bloatware. With the stock Android, the manufacturer can release the monthly security patches and major OS updates. Asus also promised to give Android P and Android Q updates for this device.

The ZenFone Max Pro M1 measures 8.46mm thick and weigh 180 grams, but it comes equipped with a huge 5,000mAh battery.

It even supports fast charging with the 5V/2A (10W) power adapter provided within the package. According to the company, ZenFone Max Pro M1 gives up to 199hrs of music playback, 42 hours of talk-time and lasts up to 35 days on standby mode.

7. Face Unlock

However, the device also supports face unlock to securely unlock the device by just looking at the front camera. The face unlock feature is not available out of the box, but the company mentioned it to be made available with the OTA update.

8. 18:9 Aspect Ratio + High Contrast Ratio
